My Capresso is on route to me. I bought an additional filter because we intend to brew 4.5 cups at 5am and then 2 cups at 8:30AM so need another clean/dry filter second brew. No time to clean and dry first one. We do that now with are regular drip coffee maker.

It comes with the gold-tone filter. I ended up using disposable paper filters instead, though, so I wouldn't have to clean the filter. Lazy, but hopefully the saved water makes up for the wasted paper.

The machine does come with a removable filter for the basket. It is seven kinds of #@&& to clean, so perhaps people buy a spare. I most seriously do not like this machine and I am very sorry I bought it. I should have bought the $15 Capresso grinder and used that with my Cuisinart machine.

Hi.The one I got had a filter and was on sale for about 18.00. Works great, so I got 3 others for my family. I should be on their payroll. LOL

Hi Mary - no you don't have to use the filter but I do because even pure water has minerals that can build up and clog the water inlet.This is my second one - the first lasted over 15 years. makes the best coffee - enjoy

it does come with a gold mesh round filter. Cone shaped filters will not fit in this coffeemaker.

no the filter is purchased separately, there's a great video on You Tube as to how to use this Drip Pot, its a great little pot to use if you only drink one cup of coffee in the morning or your not in a hurry, hope this help you. Nancy

No; it comes with a small black basket; you drop a disposable filter into the basket & then add your coffee; you can buy a reusable basket as an option from Amazon; I personally like being able to just drop the used filter into the trash; less mess!

It does not require a filter. It has a removable filter where you place the coffee

It has a filter that you use in the water reservoir. You buy your own filters. I use the regular 8-10 cup They fit perfect. Gold filter? I'm not sure what you are asking. It's a great machine! I love it... Grinds with the timer setting too. Grinds nicely and the coffee stays warm because the pot is insulated.

Don't use the replacement filters. See my review on the product to understand why. The replacement filters simply don't work properly. The filters in the frame work best. I called Mr Coffee and complained about the replacement filters and they apologized for my experience and shipped me out two WF10s (filter and frame).Sunbeam/Mr Coffee support told me they have a subscribe program for these filters you get 3 WF-10's every 3 months, net cost is $10, and they don't charge you for shipping. This is an excellent deal if you're looking for using these on a regular basis.

I never needed to get filter cartridges for the coffee maker. I used filtered water so I didn't see a need to filter the water twice. I no long have this coffee maker. It was a problem from the day I got it. If you haven't purchased it yet I would look for a different model. This is one I bought and am very please with, Cuisinart DCC-1200 Brew Central 12-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker. Good luck.

Allison, Yes it does come with the filter. I had it for a month or so and it stopped working. I had to get a refund. Not very good. My advise don't get it.

While I did not buy my 5 cup Mr. Coffee coffee maker on Amazon, it came with the permanent gold filter. My question was what size paper filter could be used and i see the answer that you can use the 8-12 basket type coffee filters.

You should purchase extra coffee filters for it, as it only comes with about 4 paper filters. I like the paper ones, instead of getting the lining. They are from Amazon also. I purchased the "Brew Rite" for 4 cup, 200 count filters. Even making a latte every day, that will last quite a while.

It depends on the seller, so click on the link at the bottom of the list of "Other Sellers on Amazon" on the right side of the page. If you buy directly from Technivorm, you get the coffee maker. Currently, if you buy from Roastmasters (at the moment it says 100% positive ratings in the last year) then you pay the same price, get free shipping and it comes with "2 pounds of freshly roasted coffee, goldfilter, paper filters, package of Cleancaf." You don't get Prime Shipping, but they ship quickly and if you love good coffee then you won't need the easy return policy that comes with Prime. I won't give my Moccamaster up until they come out with something better (don't hold your breath) or I die. In fact, I may even ask to be buried with mine like a Pharaoh so I can enjoy great coffee in the afterlife! BTW, mine came with a gold filter and I gave it away -- I think the unbleached paper filters make a superior cup of coffee.

Yes, mine was shipped from an American distributor who included an independently-branded gold filter. Techni-vorm does not recommend using a gold filter - although they don't explain why. Personally, the paper ones work for me. I don't care for any coffee "grit" in my cup of coffee - although I know plenty of people who prefer using the gold filter. Hope this info helps.
